[kawayan_strat]

have you heared of him before,especially with his band RP?(Rock Project)
i have some old tapes of RP lying in the house and isa lang masasabi ko...
an galing!the band was way back in the '80s(about '85),van halenish style of guitar playing.
with louie ocampo on keys,roy mercado on drums,goff macaraeg and ric segreto on vox.exceptional! 

sa mga naka rinig na.post kayo ng comment about him and RP.

[Phil]

[titser_marco]

Isn't he Grace Nono's husband?

[dantuts]

kawayan ...yes heard of RP.. galing talaga nyan si bob aves ..actually the whole band magaling.
hes the husband of grace nono..

when i attended the mike pedero workshop , sir mike was the one who engineered RP's album... , i was shocked when he revealed that bob used a rockmount effects on all of his guitar tracks. he never used an amp. galing talaga..

actually goff is a member of philmusic. sana he'll reply to this post.. napakinggan ko rin yung mga jingles nya before.. 

phil.. those early san miguel beer ads in the 80's, yung mga rock, the guitar parts was played by mr bob.

No amp was used huh.Amazing guitar tone!Its so warm and "brown".And to consider this was circa '80's,no amp modeler during those days.

[ART2000]

Post na yan para marinig namin. 

[balta]

i also attended the mike pedero workshop with dantuts.
When sir mike let us listen RP... I WAS BLOWN AWAY!
the guitar, the recording , the vocals leagues beyond!!
sobrang ganda pa ng recording. Its wierd how RP's
recording which was around 80's is far more superior
than the recording of most bands today. galing!

uy boss leech! post ka ng clips ah!!!

[gutz_3110]

san album yun version ni bob aves na here, there and everywhere? baka meron kayo copy. lupit nung version nya! 

[demet]

I only heard "Inner Country".  In that album, he played around 5-10 different stringed instruments I think and an array of different percs.  Andun din si misis Grace singing on some songs.  I remember na the first time I ever listend to it, I was blown away.  All songs are noteab;e tracks pero as far as I can remember I really enjoyed Yeye(I think) where he introed with a ukelele jam tapos evolved into something else na maluit.  Lupet lang talaga.

Eto yung awards niya for Inner Country:

Bob Aves, Inner Country, BMG Pilipinas, 2000
Winner of 6 Katha Awards:
· Best Instrumental Album
· Best Instrumental Composition (In Silence)
· Best Instrumental Arrangement (In Silence)
· Best Instrumental Performance (In Silence)
· Best Jazz Instrumental Composition (Where The River Flows)
· Best Jazz Instrumental Performance (Where The River Flows)

I believe Goff Macaraeg is the same Goff we have here in philmusic. 

[Deadwing]

NU used to also play his version of Here, There, and Everywhere on the radio.  It's almost like the George Benson arrangement except with heavy distortion and pinch harmonics left and right.

naku naunahan mo lang ako deadwing. but he's really awesome in that track. kausohan ng satriani's surfing yun noong madals ko din naririnig yung here there and everywhere sa NU 107....he became grace nono's husband and producer sa mga album nya.

[kawayan_strat]

i think they called him "MR.BOP" when he was in berkeley.(correct me)

[greatwolf]

Goff is active in the Philmusic mailing list. There were a few queries about RP a while back. Damn, I don't have a copy of Strange Storms...only Street Legal.

I don't think it was Bob who played at the 1st NU Rock Awards though..can anyone confirm this?
